It’s that time of year again. No, not when I write my now seemingly annual article (sorry, I’ll try and get back to it!), but rather the time when clubs anxiously await their fate as to which division they’ll be competing in the following season. Why, though, does it always come to this?

Non League Podcast Episode 72 Out Now

This week, Kristan is joined by Rob and myself to discuss the latest goings-on in the world of non league football. Top story is the frankly ridiculous news that broke during the week concerning England C. FA chief Brian Barwick is supposedly considering axing the semi-professional international side as he tries to cut costs in order to fund grassroots football. Erm? Needless to say, we are not happy about it!

Elsewhere, there’s financial trouble at Bideford, North Ferriby United are put up for sale three weeks after winning the FA Trophy, and Kingstonian goalkeeper Rob Tolfrey is finally punished for his altercation with Bognor fans in February. There’s also the usual tip of the hat to this week’s hattrick heroes.

Oh, and then there’s the And Finally. This week, we focus on the Clitheroe striker who scored – after the match! Rob pretty much suffers complete breakdown during this section as the puns and jokes naturally surface! I’d advise caution before listening to the final eight minutes, especially if you have kiddies nearby.

About James Bartaby

Hey,
I'm James and I'm relatively new to non-league football, having only taken in my first match in September 2011. Despite it being a 0-4 defeat for Hampton & Richmond Borough, I became a huge fan of the club and NL in general. So much so that they are now the first club that I mention when talking about which team I support! I just got massively disillusioned with top flight football in this country and the attitudes of the lawmakers and top clubs in general, and I wanted to start taking my son to see decent football.
I am now the club's Deputy Press Officer, and loving every minute!
